william pomeranz with us with the kennan institute, their deputy director to.bsolutely honored he could give us perspective this morning. the villa where mr. putin awaits the arrival of the president of the united states. my major observation is that the u.s. motorcade was maybe going at a faster speed than the russian motorcade. professor pomeranz, i think very importantly here is what we have observed over the last number of days. many suggesting a nato overreach. did nato reset in the last number of days there overreach of adding countries over the recent in the cold war years? -- recent end of the cold war years? william: there is an issue in the communiques of dealing with china, although there is an overwhelming agreement on how that can be done, so i don't think we had overreach in nato. the second reason why i don't we have overreaches that president biden yesterday issued a very strong statement that nato is not going to have ukraine join it anytime soon. ukraine has to deal with its domestic policy, with corruption for it becomes a part of nato. that
